Your Majesty will suffer

Chapter 125 The Truth

The sky will be bright, and the rain will gradually stop.

The person who hadn't slept all night got up and rubbed his forehead at this moment, saying to order him: "You go and rest for a while, after dawn, go to Dali Temple again!"

It made him look surprised, and asked why he went there?

The man stood with his back facing the window, he couldn't tell what his expression was like, but when he heard the voice, it was flat: "Return with love!"

He didn't know why, but when he heard the details, his face suddenly changed, and he said in confusion: "Why does your lord think that Yu Bi was wronged?"

Nangong Ji sighed: Su Yubi followed him into the Liang Dynasty for ten years, if he really had ulterior motives and wanted to trap him in injustice, why wait until today?Moreover, poisoning tributes is by no means an easy task, it must have been plotted for a long time and painstakingly worked out, and once the thing is done, how can you go back on your word?Even though he was thinking about the old love and suddenly awakened, why did the hall keep his mouth shut and conceal more?It should be known that if there is no evidence, Dali Temple does not dare to close the case easily based on one-sided words.With Su Yubi's dexterity, he couldn't help thinking about these things.

That being the case, why was he in such a hurry to seek death before the case became clear?Do you not want to suffer from torture?But according to what Nangongji thought, it was definitely not the case!The reason why Yu Bi made this choice was because he was not the culprit, so he couldn't confess!If he is tortured, he is afraid that his words will be wrong, and it is even more difficult to ensure that he will not be implicated indiscriminately, so he decides to die!And if the case is still unsolved, Dali Temple may decide on it because of greed for merit.In this way, he can take all the crimes on himself to relieve the main body's worries!

This sad news was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky. Although Nangongji was heartbroken for a while, it also taught him to wake up: Yu Bi devoted himself to protecting the Lord, so that he died tragically. Notoriety!

This night, after careful consideration of the previous events, Nan Gongji had already realized something, but it was just his own speculation, if there is no real evidence, it is not enough for Dali Temple to accept it!Fortunately, after many years of friendship, Zhang Fang did not stand idly by in the crisis of his Nangong Mansion; it is also fortunate that although the poisoner was cunning, he still left a flaw in the end!

After tracing the traces, after a few days, the truth will be revealed!As Nangongji expected, it was exactly the same. Although the culprit in this case was not Yu Bi, it was still someone beside him.

If you want to ask the whole story, you have to go back to that day first. Nangongji ordered him to go to Dali Temple, in fact, it was just to convey a word: the Yuwen clan in the middle of Sichuan has always been rebellious. There seems to be an ulterior purpose, so it is suspected that he is the mastermind of this case!

For this plan, Nangongji naturally thought it over a lot. After all, if there is a deviation in this matter, he will inevitably fall into the crime of false accusation; not to mention, this is indeed the work of Yuwen Shijie, but his Nangong family may not be able to get his whole body. retreat.It's just two evils, whichever is lesser!Nan Gongji knew Zhang Fang's temperament very well. Based on Yu Bi's one-sided words, he knew that there was no real evidence in the investigation, so he would definitely not make a hasty conclusion!In this way, Yu Bi's death would be in vain, and his father would still be called to Beijing, which was not what he wanted.As for the Yuwen clan, the current situation must be in their calculations. If this situation is not broken, the middle of Sichuan may sink into the abyss step by step. Given time, the overall situation may also be controlled by the Yuwen clan!Therefore, in consideration, in order to prevent Yuwen's treacherous plan from succeeding and confusing the world, this is the only way to take the risk!

To testify against Yuwen Shijie, although Nan Gongji has no real evidence, he is not based on speculation: first, he is clear about Yuwen's disobedience; After the Yuwen brothers and sisters entered Beijing; thirdly, although Shijie stayed in the mansion for a long time these days, the whereabouts of his servants are not very clear. Had an excuse to go out!In retrospect, all of this is suspicious.

Later, the truth was found out, which proved that what he had expected was true: Shijie went out that day, not for sightseeing, nor for shopping, nor for meeting friends, but went out of the city to meet the team escorting the tribute wine. Come and comfort me!But the tribute envoy knew that he was a close friend of the prince in Yuwen Yamen, so he naturally didn't doubt it, so he gave him an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Afterwards, Dali Temple interrogated, but the tribute envoy thought that the matter involved the prince, and was afraid of causing accidents, so he boldly concealed the situation.Fortunately, Zhang Fang was able to order him to report, and brought the envoys and guards who escorted the tribute wine to Beijing to go through the trial one by one, and then he got the truth.

At the same time, the source of the poisonous aconitum was also found. According to a pharmacist, the person who bought the aconitum powder was Shijie's confidant and attendant!

In this way, Yuwen Shijie is the mastermind of this case, so there is nothing to say!

Now that the facts of the case have been clarified, it goes without saying that Yuwen Shijie is responsible for his own guilt. Nan Gongji's immediate concern is whether the imperial court can withdraw his order and prevent his father from going to Beijing to make a statement.Besides, killing the king and plotting against him is a serious matter, so how should we deal with the Yuwen clan?This is critical!Yuwen's plot to alienate him has been defeated, and he should be in danger now.Yu Wenyuan has a high position and power, and his younger brother Yuwen Yuanxiang and Yuwen Yuanxu are both in charge of the army. The crime is linked to his family, and there is fear of accidents!

However, he hadn't been able to resolve his worries, but something unexpected happened --- Dali Temple came to take Rou Su away!Because she is a relative of Shijie, or she has helped her succeed, otherwise, she should be implicated in the crime of treason!Therefore, this time, the two of his brother and sister are more or less fortunate.

Rou Su is innocent, Nan Gongji naturally knows it.At the beginning, she only wanted to find out the real culprit, to settle the matter, and to avenge Yu Bi, but she never thought that Rou Su would be involved!But she is in prison today, and on the surface it seems that she is burdened by her brother, but in fact, this bitter fruit was not brewed by him, Nan Gongji?

Silai couldn't bear it: she was a weak woman, she was full of joy to marry as a bride, but turned out to be unkempt and reduced to a prisoner!It is always unpredictable.

Half a month later, Dali Temple finally sentenced the case: Yuwen Shijie committed a heinous crime and was sentenced to death, while his younger sister Yuwen Shijie committed suicide!

Although it was expected, Nan Gongji couldn't help but feel great grief: Shijie is certainly to blame, but Rousu is implicated by him, so he will inevitably die, which is really not reconciled!In the final analysis, she was harmed by herself, and seeing her die, Nangong Ji couldn't bear it, so despite her efforts to dissuade her, she decided to enter the palace to intercede for her.

I haven't seen him for two months, and misfortunes are happening here, and the more he expected, the more anxious he was, and he was afraid that he would be decadent, and he was really worried.When I hear him coming, I will announce it immediately.

The moment he saw him, he really lost a lot of weight, and his description seemed haggard, Yue Ling couldn't bear it.

Left and right have been taught to retreat, but Nan Gongji is still frowning at this moment, seems to be full of thoughts, he hesitates to speak a few times, seems quite hesitant.

Seeing this, Yue Ling guessed that the unspeakable secret in his heart must be related to the previous case, so he simply expressed his feelings first, saying: "The case of Gongjiu has been investigated, and the Yuwen family should be related to the family..."

Don't want to finish the sentence, but the man was already in a hurry, and said abruptly: "Yuwen Shijie is the culprit, even if he should be punished! However, his sister Yuwen is kind and innocent, and he doesn't know about it. I ask your majesty to spare her death."

Yue Ling was stunned, he didn't expect this to be what he was asking for, he frowned and said: "It would be fine if you said this earlier, but now that the judgment of Dali Temple has been passed and everyone knows about it, how can you teach me how to take it back? "

Nangong Ji said sadly: "If I had known this earlier, I would not have allowed her to enter the capital! Now it is a done deal, in the final analysis, I pushed her to a dead end with one hand, if she is really punished for this, I will feel that this life will be in trouble!"

I don't know why, upon hearing this, Yue Ling suddenly felt a nameless anger welling up in his heart, and snorted coldly: "I mean, I don't allow you, but you still hate me for it!"

The man bowed his head and said nothing, the anti-religious Yue Ling became more and more annoyed, and said angrily: "What a peace of mind! Nangong Ji, you are so devoted to pity and cherish jade, but did you ever think that this would embarrass me? For your words of 'peace of mind', I have always been burdened with a lot of infamy for selfishness and arbitrariness, don't you know the slightest?"

The man was silent for a long time, then slowly raised his head, the meaning in his eyes was indescribable, he seemed unwilling, but also seemed to be begging: "Ling, this is the last time, and I will definitely have nothing to ask from now on."

Yue Ling felt annoyed and couldn't bear it, he turned his sleeves and turned his back, and sighed: "I beg you not to enter Beijing, I beg you not to be implicated, and today I beg you not to die, there are no fears, you might as well let your Nangong family sit here!" Even so, the language is full of helplessness.

After some disputes, Rou Su was still unable to be rescued.Nangongji was in a trance, and when he returned to the mansion, it was already evening, but he heard that Uncle Wang had come for a while.Yuan Dechang has been in Beijing for a while, and will return to Shu tomorrow, so he came to say goodbye.

Hearing that Nan Gongji had actually entered the palace to intercede for Yuwen, Dechang was shocked and said, "Your Highness is so confused! This case is peaceful. I entered the court yesterday to try my best to prevent the king from entering the capital to make a statement. The holy intention has already been moved. , but you acted rashly, how can you know that it is not a bad thing!"

Nan Gongji was startled, and suddenly remembered that Cai Yueling seemed to have said "beg to be exempted from entering Beijing, beg to be exempted from being implicated", and suddenly realized: Uncle Yuan had already entered the court to make a statement!

If the king of Shu enters Beijing, there may be fear of changes in the middle of Shu; if the Yuwen family is punished, they will definitely rebel!This is the feeling expressed by Dechang on the day he entered the court.

In fact, ever since the case of Murong's, Yuwen Yuanying has been on guard!

Thinking back, there is a reason why the Murong family collapsed so easily: Murong's own army was originally commanded by Murong Hao, the son of Murong Shen, and stationed in Gongzhou. The group of dragons has no leader, and Murong Hao is unpopular at first, and the court appeases them in a timely manner, so a rebellion against the army can be avoided.

However, the power of the Yuwen clan today is not the same as that of the Murong clan back then!The two soldiers in charge of his clan, Yuwen Yuanxiang and Yuwen Yuanxu, are currently stationed in Lizhou and Yazhou. These two places, especially Yazhou, are only a hundred miles away from Chengdu. If the army moves, it will arrive in a few days!And with Murong's lesson in mind, how the current imperial court announced the summons, both of them said that they were ill and would not return, their meaning is obvious!

The change of master in the middle of Shu is definitely not what Daliang wants to see, especially the Yuwen clan is very ambitious. Compared with the Tuoba clan of Qiang Jie, it can be said to be even worse!

Therefore, the Holy Will is clear: the king of Shu will not enter Beijing, and the Yuwen family can also be temporarily exempted from being implicated (to the outside world, Yuwen Shijie’s charges have been vaguely accused of coercion/poisoning in private, deliberately pretending to be regicide), but the two brothers and sisters of Yuwen Man, he has been convicted of a crime and cannot be lightly indulged!

When Nan Gongji heard this, his heart was already chilled, so, could it be that Rou Su didn't even have a chance of survival?

Seeing that he was still unwilling, Dechang was worried that he would be obsessed with obsession, would go his own way, and would do something unwise again, so he persuaded him: "The case of tribute wine has already caused an uproar in the court, and it is the crime of the court not asking about the lax governance of the king. , should also implicate the entire Yuwen family! Now it is the mercy of heaven to judge his brother and sister as sinners! Your Highness must take care of the overall situation, and do not rashly commit crimes because of personal interests!"

After all, seeing that person is still noncommittal, one knows that he is still obsessed.Feeling uneasy in my heart, I walked back and forth for a while, finally made up my mind, turned around and said: "There is one thing that should not be mentioned at this moment, lest His Highness worry too much, but now that things are so unpredictable, I think I should teach His Highness to know. In order to deal with it!"

Nangong Ji asked in surprise, "What's the matter? Uncle Wang, please tell the truth."

Dechang frowned: "The court intends to persuade the king Yi Chu, does Your Highness know?"

As if pouring cold water from the same basin, Nan Gongji suddenly became numb.

Dechang seemed to have expected this, he sighed, and said earnestly: "The imperial court is afraid of your highness, because your highness is superior in intelligence, endowment and virtue are far superior to others! That's why your highness has to keep a low profile, don't show off, and even more avoid it." Disobedience to the holy will triggers the wrath of the heavens!"

It's a pity that Nan Gongji didn't listen to what he said from the bottom of his heart.His heart, at this moment, does not know where it has sunk. . .
